Disgorged 2014. Vibrant, bright, oaken and vinous, completely and utterly delicious. Grateful to catch a glimpse of this — 9 years ago

Nice. Too early, but I've 4 of these and need to prognosticate. Opened yesterday, tight as a nun's ass. Today: warm, with integrated, a glimpse of niceness. — 9 years ago

The door was only partially open, but the glimpse inside revealed strawberry and cherry accented with minty underbrush, herbs, and stone. The lively acid is cut short by a wall of tannins. Loads of savoriness, but will be better in a year or two. — 9 years ago

Remarkable example of whole cluster style at an extremely reasonable price. The precision found here offers a glimpse of what C-C's top wines have to offer. — 10 years ago

A deep intense perfumed glimpse into the hills of northern Italy. Gets better and more expressive with time and pairs well with lamb shank ragout. I heart Nebbiolo! — 11 years ago

Not as enjoyable as the last bottle a couple of years ago. Time to drink up. These don't age as well as the Eldridge Pope brewed versions (1999 and earlier), but still at least offer a glimpse of the greatness. — 9 years ago

Lovely glimpse into the estate, terroir, and style they produce. To me this is an awesome bargain and would definitely love to try with more bottle age — 9 years ago

Viscous and soulful. If you are looking for a value amarone to give you a nice glimpse into this varietal, this is the bottle. Thick and juicy, syrupy and dark fruitish, this is a winter wine that will knock your sox off. The blood of a guido. — 10 years ago

Brooding beast. Cherry cola and dark fruit on the front, fleeting acidity on the back with just a brief glimpse of tannin, but plenty of alcohol and body. — 10 years ago

at first glimpse it is german riesling, loads of exotic fruit and stones.
but it was the first time i reckoned a certain sauternes touch in a non-sauternes wine, my nose impression still rang the sauternes bell even after the product got discovered.

gorgeous, well balanced wine! — 10 years ago

Decadent. With cheese and dreams. After a serious phalanx of wine. Including a corked 96 MDT. Very grateful for this glimpse. — 11 years ago

Just beautiful. Bright fruit, seamless tannin, and a glimpse of the earth it was raised in. With lovely, restrained character, and refreshing acidity- in a town of big fat plush Cabernets, this has finesse and class. Can't wait to see how it evolves! — 12 years ago

Elegance to the absolute extreme! Perhaps a bit youthful and unleashed, yet so sexy and ever so convincing. A potpourri of fresh and perfectly ripe, almost electrical fruit, with a teasing glimpse (soubois) on what is lying beneath on the nose. A mesmerizing flavor intensity that is coming in waves, and the length… well it is still liingering. Beautiful! — 9 years ago

Aaron Tan

9.1

A glimpse into the future of Yarra Valley perhaps? A Bordeaux blend with remarkable balance. Young definitely, but very approachable now. Cassis dominates, darks fruits basically, spice, cedar, herbs, earth. Beautiful tannins, excellent oak use, and persistent finish. — 9 years ago

I know this wine will be great in another 10...but I feel like I was getting a glimpse of its plateau this year. 12 wasn't the best year in Pauillac, but I am thoroughly enjoying the vintage across the board of left bank Bordeaux. It was showing that world class Pauillac nose - cigar box, gravelly/loamy soil, and mulled fruit. The pallet is nice and rich but not necessarily fruit forward, exhibiting flavors of stewed black plum, red apple skin, vanilla and espresso bean, and a lovely finish. This also made a great wine for our Cigars. — 9 years ago

Opened way too young, despite the vintage this has years ahead of it. Not sure what I was thinking. Last glass was just giving a glimpse of what this might become. Rich red fruit, earth and very beguiling. Wish I'd kept it hidden though. The '09. — 10 years ago

Amazingly brilliant the 1969 Krug Cabernet Sauvignon gives you a glimpse of what CA wines were all about. Grippy acid still leaves the wine with structure and an amazing balance and a long finish makes this a compelling drink! — 10 years ago

I remember 1st time reading the wine note , I 'm confused by all these words such as linden flower ,gooseberry,genet,locust.... Growing up in Asia,I am not familiar with so many fruits or woods I 've never seen in supermarket, I thought a wine note should be able to reduce the complexity of the tasting of wine , not the other way around. I could not find a way to resolve this till I meet this wine. When I taste cask23 , after a sip of of FAY, another sip of S.L.V and sips of some white, I felt like finally I meet the goddess. If FAY is a fair lady, SLV is a leaping stag or elf, Cask 23 is the godness. I could not find a other word to describe this wine characteristics overall , not by naming it after fruits, the complexity, elegancy, as well as amazing glimpse, everything makes her a prefect lady. A real goddess beats Old world wine in 1976 XD💪💃💃🎈👍😄 — 11 years ago

2012 Vintage - Peppery, very dark, gnarly, smoky, black cherry, black currant, , glimpse of leather and game. Long finish. Very nice. Could age 3-5 years. Classic Mourvedre/Monastrell profile. Fantastic for Under $20 — 11 years ago

Color me a proud mother. You know what, don't color me at all. Was relieved this showed no signs of premox. A subtle wine that afforded glances of elements followed by a glimpse of the whole. Toasted oak was a nice, subtle frame, and a layer of tropicality emerged as a nice feature. Racy and almost stingy at first, with increasing length as the hours passed. In an adolescent stage but with great bones. — 12 years ago
